I work with individuals aged 18 and over to create lasting change in their lives. Services are available in-person in Calgary and virtually across Alberta and Nova Scotia.

​

I specialize in supporting veterinarian and aviation professionals, and welcome all adults regardless of profession to connect.

Working in the veterinary field often means giving deeply to others — to animals, clients, and colleagues alike. Over time, this dedication can take a personal toll, leading to stress, emotional fatigue, or a sense of disconnection. I provide counselling services for veterinary professionals, including vets, nurses, technicians, receptionists, and support staff, while also welcoming individuals from all walks of life who are seeking meaningful support and personal growth.

Aviation is arguably a highly misunderstood profession - from IROPs, holding Reserve, missing important family events, and battling seniority, it is a constantly juggling act that requires sacrifice, flexibility, and the ability to pivot on a moment's notice under extraordinary amounts of stress. Having worked in aviation myself for 20 years and only recently retired, I honour the challenges that come with pursuing a career in this industry, whether you're on the ground as an AME, CSA, in the OCC, or in the air as flight crew and cabin crew.

My counselling approach is person-centered and strengths-based, grounded in the belief that each person already holds valuable resources and insights to support their own wellbeing. Together, we build on these strengths to help you move toward positive and sustainable change.

​

I draw from a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – to understand and reframe unhelpful thought patterns

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – to help you live in alignment with your values

• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) - to help regulate emotions and strengthen relationships

• Internal Family Systems (IFS) - to gently heal your inner trauma and restore inner balance, compassionately

 

Through our work together, we may focus on goals such as:

• Managing workplace stress and emotional demands

• Navigating compassion fatigue or burnout

• Strengthening resilience and self-compassion

• Reconnecting with purpose and meaning in your work and life

• Finding balance and fulfilment beyond professional roles

 

I take an action-oriented approach to therapy, focusing on changing patterns of behaviour that impact or are a result of your internal experience. We won't sit and talk about the same thing over and over, week to week, leaving you in the same space. Together, we will create an actionable plan to effect meaningful change in your life.

​

This is a confidential space where I strive to cultivate a haven of support and safety, where you can feel understood and valued — a place to reflect, heal, and grow. Whether you work within the veterinary or aviation community, or come from another background, you deserve care and support that honours your experiences and helps you move forward with confidence.
